cake

with Lavender Rose Elderflower Glaze

Ok, y’all! This cake was a crazy experiment that turned out to be AMAZING! I made it to represent some of my favorite cocktails, which typically include gin, lemon and St-Germain elderflower liqueur. Additionally, I had a bunch of meyer lemons that I had recently purchased and needed to use up. So, of course, I turned to the almighty internet for inspiration.

You know what you get when you Google “Elderflower cake?” Well, apparently you get several copy-cat recipes of the more recent royal wedding cake. Yep, I had no idea that flavor combo was even trending. Seems like I need to update myself on the royals….

The wedding cake is to be served at the Reception. It was designed by Claire Ptak and features elderflower syrup made at The Queen’s residence in Sandringham from the estate’s own elderflower trees, as well as a light sponge cake uniquely formulated for the couple. #royalweddingpic.twitter.com/kt5lE4tEn9
